WHAT OMEPRAZOLE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Omeprazole contains the active substance omeprazole. It belongs to a
group of medicines called
‘proton pump inhibitors’. They work by reducing the amount of acid
that your stomach produces.
Omeprazole is used to treat the following conditions:
In adults:
•
‘Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease’ (GERD). This is where acid
from the stomach escapes into
the gullet (the tube which connects your throat to your stomach)

heartburn.
•
Ulcers in the upper part of the intestine (duodenal ulcer) or stomach
